Service command
Scope the system before selling the sprint.
Target buyer
AEC technology leaders, VDC/BIM managers, CAD managers, IT leaders, and project controls teams responsible for Autodesk construction and design collaboration systems.
Operating model
Discovery -> scope -> build -> handoff
Buyer answer
Is CAD Guardian the right path for this service?
CAD Guardian LLC provides founder-led AEC and BIM Platform Administration for AEC technology leaders, VDC/BIM managers, CAD managers, IT leaders, and project controls teams responsible for Autodesk construction and design collaboration systems. Use this page when the production system needs scoped architecture, implementation, and handoff without a large vendor chain.
Strong fit signals
- AEC teams where ACC, BIM 360, Forma, Revit, Civil 3D, ProjectWise-adjacent records, or document libraries need cleaner administration and migration planning.
- VDC/BIM leaders needing permissions, SSO/MFA, folder taxonomy, CADD/BIM standards, naming conventions, and metadata to support real project work.
What to send
- System or workflow causing drag
- Current failure mode and business impact
- Autodesk Inventor API, MicroStation, SolidWorks, CAD, quote/BOM, PDF/DXF, label, .NET, SQL, ERP, PDM/PLM, or ACC environment
- Timeline, access constraints, and decision owner
- What a successful first phase must prove
First paid step
A $50 discovery call produces a written go/no-go recommendation, risk notes, and the first scoped phase if the problem is a fit.
Decision proof
Adjacent sanitized case studies are available when this exact service line is still in disclosure review.
Outcomes
Governed
Permissions, folders, naming, standards, and document context before rollout
Mapped
Revit/Civil 3D/ACC/Forma handoff boundaries for downstream reporting
Controlled
Legacy platform retirement with validation gates and rollback posture
Execution path
AEC/BIM platform administration audit covering users, roles, permissions, SSO/MFA, folders, naming, and document controls.
ACC/BIM 360/Forma/Revit/Civil 3D workflow map for project data, model context, issue/submittal/RFI data, and downstream reporting.
Legacy data and document-system retirement plan with source inventory, field mapping, archival posture, and validation gates.
CADD/BIM standards review tied to document management, CAD/Revit context, and operational handoff.

Best fit / not a fit
Best fit
- AEC teams where ACC, BIM 360, Forma, Revit, Civil 3D, ProjectWise-adjacent records, or document libraries need cleaner administration and migration planning.
- VDC/BIM leaders needing permissions, SSO/MFA, folder taxonomy, CADD/BIM standards, naming conventions, and metadata to support real project work.
- IT teams retiring old project data systems, file shares, or document libraries into Autodesk-centered workflows.
- Project teams that need data governance and integration boundaries, not pure modeling support.
Not a fit
- Pure Revit, Civil 3D, or BIM modeling production.
- Commodity helpdesk administration with no migration, standards, integration, or workflow modernization component.

Contract
Simple MSA + Order Form. No multi-year lock-ins. Timelines and deliverables live in a shared project tracker, not buried in legal.
Kickoff & Delivery
Shared roadmap with task owners, weekly check-ins, and a named point of contact. I project-manage delivery the same way I would an internal priority.
FAQ
AEC / BIM Platform Administration questions
FAQ
No. CAD Guardian focuses on platform administration, document management, metadata, permissions, migration, standards, integration, and workflow handoff. Modeling production is a different service category.
Yes at the workflow and document-control boundary. CAD Guardian can map ProjectWise-adjacent records, file shares, document libraries, and Autodesk collaboration systems so migration and handoff risks are visible before automation.
Yes. The first phase can review user groups, roles, permission strategy, naming conventions, SSO/MFA posture, folder taxonomy, and support handoff needs.
Yes. ACC/BIM data can feed reporting when the source objects, metadata, permissions, and validation rules are mapped before integration begins.
